Producers are Failing to Create when Connecting to a "Non-Persistent Partitioned Replicated" Topic

[Saswatibhoi]

We have found a bug, where the producers are failing to create when connecting to a "non-persistent partitioned replicated" topic. Looks like the replicator fails to start based on the logs we see on the broker. The producer connects fine when it is a "non-persistent partitioned" topic but not replicated. The producer also connects fine when it is a "persistent partitioned replicated" topics. The issue occurs only when it is a "non-persistent partitioned replicated" topic. To make it more clear,

"non-persistent partitioned replicated" >> fails to create producers.
"non-persistent partitioned non-replicated" >> successfully creates producers.
"persistent partitioned replicated" >> successfully creates producers.
"persistent partitioned non-replicated" >> successfully creates producers.

I haven't tested anything wrong with the current master branch. can you provide specific steps to reproduce?

When the cluster 1 create non-persistent partitioned topic, one producer look up topic from cluster 2, and the topic haven't replicate from cluster 1 to cluster2, when cluster 2 create one non-partitioned non-persistent topic and found cluster 1 have create this topic by partitioned topic then it will throw this
